What should I do now?
I had tuberculosis (TB) in the past. Now I am being treated for Allergic Bronchopulmonary Aspergillosis (ABPA). I took montelukast and budesonide (6 mcg and 200 mcg) but only on and off, not regularly.
My mucus has increased recently. I just learned that this condition can be dangerous.
What should I do now? Do I need to see a doctor urgently or change my treatment?
Please help.
